Listed below are organizations that take care of police and firefighters killed in the line of duty...

National Fallen Firefighters Foundation
You can give as little as $5 to the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation to help support families coping with the loss of a fallen firefighter. Instead of #GivingTuesday, the NFFF uses #FireHeroTuesday for the Tuesday after Thanksgiving. Their fundraising goal for this year is $30,000. Donate here.

First Responders Children's Foundation
The foundation works with families across the country, including police, fire, Forest Service, Border Patrol, EMS and all other forms of first responders. They help provide college scholarships to children whose first responders' parents have either died in the line of duty or have become permanently disabled due to their line of work. Donate here.

Stephen Siller Tunnel to Towers Foundation
The foundation, named after firefighter Stephen Siller, who died on 9/11, helps ease the financial burden of fallen responders' families by paying off their mortgages or creating trust accounts. All donations go directly to fund this initiative. Donate here.

A charitable organization devoted exclusively to the well-being of families of Cuyahoga County safety officers who have lost their lives, or have become permanently and totally disabled and incapacitated, in the line of duty. Since its inception in 1956, Bluecoats has fulfilled the vision of its founders by providing support and care to the families of those who have given their lives to protect each of us, our families and our community. Donate here.

IMPORTANT NOTE!Due to the Covid 19 pandemic, most cities have postponed their exams for the near future.

However, the need for firefighters is constant and cities will be testing again as soon as conditions allow.

To help you in this endeavor, we are continuing to update our blog with informative articles focusing on the entire firefighter testing process.

Now is the perfect time to prepare yourself to be in the best position to be hired. Use this time to study for exams and be ready when cities open for testing!

Remember that we are doing our best to provide the latest information to our readers, but things are very fluid right now.
